Recently, IoT technology has been applied to the control of appliances in the home, and information about temperature, humidity, etc. is collected and the application of the system to control the indoor environment automatically is increasing. Currently, the network configuration of IoT devices is mainly used to connect IoT devices to the Internet through wireless gateways. Since such a method is dependent on a gateway, there are limitations in providing various services. Therefore, this paper proposes an independent method of gateway by using IoT network without using gateway by applying long distance wireless communication technology. IoT devices using the proposed long distance wireless internet technology can connect to a remote server and provide mobility that can not be supported by existing methods, thereby providing more various services. The performance evaluation of the proposed network configuration method is compared with the delay time and the amount of data generated in the existing network method constituted by the gateway and the proposed network configuration method respectively. Experimental results show that the proposed method decreases the delay time and the amount of data generated by the gateway.

Once the sensor node in wireless sensor networks is installed, it usually operates without human intervention for a long time. The remote code update scheme is required because it is difficult to recall the sensor node in many situations. Therefore, studies on the reliable and efficient transport protocol for code propagation in wireless sensor networks have been increasingly done. However, by considering only the stability aspect of transmission, most of previous works ignore the consideration on the fast code propagation. This results the energy inefficiency by consuming unnecessary energy due to the slow code propagation. In this paper, in order to overcome limitation of the previous code propagation protocols, we propose a new code propagation protocol called "FCPP(Fast Code Propagation Protocol)". The FCPP aims at improving the reliability at well as performance. For this purpose, the FCPP accomplishes the fast code propagation by using the RTT-based transmission rate control and NACK suppression scheme, which provides a better the network utilization and avoids a unnecessary transmission delay. Based on the ns-2 simulation result, we prove that the FCPP Improves significantly both reliability and performance.

The Wireless Mesh Network technology is able to provide an infrastructure for isolated islands, in which it is difficult to install cables or wide area such as battlefield of armed forces. Therefore, Wireless Mesh Network is frequently used to satisfy needs for internet connection and active studies and research on them are in progress However, as a result of increase in number of hops under hop-by-hop communication environment has caused a significant decrease in throughput and an increase in delay. Considering the heavy traffic of real-time data, such as voice or moving pictures to adaptive WMN, in a military environment, it is restricted for remote units to have their Mesh Node to get real-time services. Such phenomenon might cause an issue in fairness. In order to resolve this issue, the Location-based Packet Scheduling Scheme, which can provide an fair QoS to each mesh node that is connected to each echelon's AP and operates based on WRR method that gives a priority to emergency message and control packet. The performance of this scheme is validated.

Low-power radio frequency (RF) chip transceiver technology and the associated structural health monitoring platforms have matured recently to enable high-rate, lossless transmission of measurement data across large-scale sensor networks. The intrinsic value of these advanced capabilities is the allowance for high-quality, rapid operational modal analysis of in-service structures using distributed accelerometers to experimentally characterize the dynamic response. From the analysis afforded through these dynamic data sets, structural identification techniques can then be utilized to develop a well calibrated finite element (FE) model of the structure for baseline development, extended analytical structural evaluation, and load response assessment. This paper presents a case study in which operational modal analysis is performed on a three-span prestressed reinforced concrete bridge using a wireless sensor network. The low-power wireless platform deployed supported a high-rate, lossless transmission protocol enabling real-time remote acquisition of the vibration response as recorded by twenty-nine accelerometers at a 256 Sps sampling rate. Several instrumentation layouts were utilized to assess the global multi-span response using a stationary sensor array as well as the spatially refined response of a single span using roving sensors and reference-based techniques. Subsequent structural identification using FE modeling and iterative updating through comparison with the experimental analysis is then documented to demonstrate the inherent value in dynamic response measurement across structural systems using high-rate wireless sensor networks.

Main machinery in the factory have various digital indicator to display its operating data for the manager. It is useful to control these datum at the remote office for factory automation in order to increase machine productivity. It is easy to use Ethernet infrastructure for remote communication. But most of all machinery in domestic factories still support RS232c or RS485 serial communication way. In this case to control machinery datum on the ethernet base, it is need to change RS232C or RS485 data to ethernet base. In this paper, in order to develop a remote progress management system through the wireless Internet, we show a design method to make easy maintenance by developing the system with both the JAVA language and RxTx Package for RS232c serial communication. For the system implementation, we added the digital indicator connect with a thermo couple to a machine which provide the real time status data of temperature. To connect machines management server program, we set up a convertor to change the RS485 data to the RS232c and also another convertor to change the RS232c data to wireless ethernet.

The wire and/or wireless data communication system for anti-disaster system of natural gas governor station was developed. In oder to prevent accidents of governor station, the operator was replaced by RTU(Remote Terminal Unit) which gather and transmit safety situation of governor station. The database and MMI(Man Machine Interface) were also developed to analyze the situation of governor station. The data communication between server and RTU was designed to switch automatically from wire to wireless communication and vice versa when one of them failed communication. We also have developed the patrol car management system which was applied GPS(Global Position System)/GIS(Geometric Information System), and the earthquake detection/transmission system which was adopted three dimension acceleration sensor. When a earthquake may occur, the earthquake detection/transmission system monitors data such as PGA(Peak Ground Acceleration), Sl(Spectrum Intensity) and orders the emergency shutoff valve close immediately.
